IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO ENROL

Note 1
ADMS2510 is one of the largest enrolment classes on campus (approximately 1,500 students
per year). This regrettably necessitates a very legalistic and inflexible approach to course
administration. This course outline has been designed to provide you in advance with detailed
guidance on every virtually conceivable rule and regulation in the course. It represents a contract
between you as a student and the Course Director, and there should be no deviations from
these rules by either party. There will be no exceptions to assignment requirements,
examination dates, and grade weighting. You should print out this document and keep it
handy for reference throughout the course.

Note 2
When you experience a conflict in your agenda, you may attend any sections. However, you
must write your examinations in your assigned section.

Note 3
From the beginning of the term, you should keep in mind the due dates for Connect LearnSmart
and Assignments. The schedule of the Connect due dates is listed in this course outline under
section heading Connect LearnSmart and Homework Assignments Schedule. The weight from
missed Connect LearnSmart and Assignments cannot be transferred to the midterm examination
and/or final examination. There is no extended deadline for missed Connect LearnSmart
and Assignments, as the solutions will be posted right after the due dates. It would be wise
to review the solutions right after due dates to reinforce learning and to take timely corrective
action on questions not successfully completed. Student’s lowest score of the assigned
LearnSmart chapters as well as their lowest homework assignment score will be dropped when
calculating the final Connect grade.

ENROLMENT DEADLINE

All sections for this course normally fill months in advance so early registration is important. If
you did not get into the course before classes start, your chances of successfully enrolling are
very slim. However, you can request the Receptionist at room 282 Atkinson to add your name to
a list that is maintained with the only purpose of estimating the unsatisfied demand for the
course, but students are not contacted when vacancies occur. The Course Director is not
involved in the registration process in any way and cannot assist you with this process. Due to
the high volume of material covered (five chapters in the first two weeks) and because of early
dates of examinations, no registration is permitted after the “last date to enroll without
permission”.

Be aware of the important dates that apply to this course by checking the following site:
https://registrar.yorku.ca/enrol/dates/fw19.

1. Help students learn to gather and develop information.
2. Help students learn to draw conclusions and form opinions from a set of data.
3. Introduce students to an entity's strategic plan and its planning process.
4. Assist students in understanding how to evaluate the entity's performance management
and the internal reporting systems.
5. Introduce students to the concept of the entity's risk management process.

COURSE COMPONENTS

Lectures
There is a three-hour lecture each week. On-campus sections will have their lecture in the
designated lecture hall at York. Attending class lectures is essential to help you better
understand class materials and provide you chances to ask course directors course-related
questions face to face.

Weekly Connect Assignments – LearnSmart and Homework (15%)

Please carefully read Connect step by step registration instructions.

The Connect LearnSmart (5%) and the Connect Homework Assignments (10%) are part of your
course work and are located in Connect, which is an adaptive learning tool that pinpoints critical
concepts you need to learn and maps out a personalized study plan to ensure success.

When working in Connect, students can also access SmartBook. SmartBook provides an
adaptive reading experience that reinforces what students need to learn and ensures they retain
the information. For another short video on SmartBook and how to improve your performance in
the course, visit www.improveyourgrades.ca.

The Connect due dates are available in this course and in Connect and each assignment is due
at 11:59 pm on the due date which cannot be extended.

Connect LearnSmart (5%) include quiz-type questions for you to self-assess your understanding
after finish reading each chapter. Students have unlimited attempts for LearnSmart questions.
Student’s lowest score of the assigned chapters will be dropped when calculating the final grade.

Connect Homework Assignments (10%) include quantitative and algorithmic questions. Students
are allowed 3 attempts to finish assignments #1 to #10 and only your best attempt will be
recorded by the professor when exporting your Connect Assignment grades. There is no time
limit for each attempt. Students can work on these assignments over time and their work and
progress will be saved. Student’s lowest score of the homework assignments will be dropped
when calculating the final grade. The following feedback will be provided for each attempt:

 First attempt: total scores, question scores, correct/incorrect indicators

 Second attempt: total scores, question scores, correct/incorrect indicators
 Final attempt: total scores before the due date, and detailed feedback after the due date

In order to access the detailed feedback after the due date, you must complete 3 attempts
OR score 100% (remember only your BEST score will be recorded):
1. Click “See Report” next to any submitted assignment
1. On the next screen, find the assignment for which you would like to view feedback
2. Click into your final attempt
3. You should see each question with detailed feedback

Midterm Tests (two midterms 25% each)

As a multi-section course, the midterm tests in ADMS2510 are scheduled outside of class on a
Saturday. The midterm tests will consist of four (4) questions. Each question will be worth 25 out
of 100 marks and will be based on exercises and problems from the assigned textbook chapters.
You should not take this course if you are unable to attend the midterm tests.

Important: Once a midterm test begins, you are considered a sitting writer (your paper will be
marked and your grade recorded). Your midterm grade is not eligible to be transferred or

AP/ADMS2510 3.0 (Winter 2020) Page 5 of 13

reweighted due to poor performance, or if you choose to not continue to write or leave early.
Students are not permitted to leave the test location during the first 30 minutes and last 15
minutes of the test. Students who arrive more than 30 minutes late for the midterm test will not
be allowed to write. You must sign in and out of the test location. Please remember to bring your
YorkU Student ID or Canadian Government Issued ID.

If you are unable to attend the regular midterm sitting (Saturday, 10am-1pm), then you should
make arrangements to write the alternative sitting the day before (Friday, 10am-1pm). To do so,
please email your Course Director at least two weeks in advance of the midterm test.

If you miss a midterm test, there is no make-up test. The full weight of only one midterm test can
be transferred to the Final Exam. If you miss a second midterm examination, you will need to
write a midterm examination in the next term, this requires written approval of your course
director. The Final can be a maximum of 70% of the course. Please refer to policies and
procedures for missed exams under University Regulations and Procedures for more
information.

Tutorial Sessions
Please refer to the Tutorial Schedule for details.

Attendance at tutorial sessions is not mandatory. Tutorial sessions are designed to cover a set of
problems and exercises, but beyond them, they are largely unstructured. In general, after the
mandated exercises have been covered during each tutorial session, the TA is available to
address questions you have in person. When the TA is getting multiple questions on a single
theme, this will usually turn into a group teaching moment.

There will be a two-hour weekly tutorial. The TA will go through worked examples of textbook
problems and assist students in areas where they have concerns. Tutorial sessions are
unstructured as there is no prepared agenda beyond the list provided below and TA’s are there
simply to help you with any questions you have on accounting theory, study techniques, and
practice problems. The best feature of these tutorials is that if you wish to get extra help, you are
invited to attend all the sessions offered each week. With 2 hours of tutorials a week, there is no
need to spend money on expensive outside tutors.

Practice Problems
There are lots of practice problems and solutions in your textbook. As you will be tested with
questions comparable to exercises and problems from assigned textbook chapters, all textbook
exercises and problems are good practice for the midterm and final examinations. The formula
for success in a “problems” course such as accounting is always to work as many exercises and
problems as time permits. Whenever a student asks their accounting professor how to improve
their grade, the automatic answer is to work more exercises and problems. You are expected to
spend substantial amount of time on problems. For problems you are still confused after
understanding textbook materials and reviewing solutions, you could seek help by asking your
course director in class, attend tutorial sessions, or email your course director.

Final Examination (35%)

The final exam is scheduled by the York University Registrar Office for the formal examination
period from April 7 to 25, 2020, and thus the date of the final exam is not known when this
course outline is issued. The final exam will consist of five (5) questions. Each question will be
worth 20 marks out of 100 marks. Questions will be based on exercises and problems from the
assigned textbook chapters. Part of a question may test the material covered in the week
covering data analysis. You should not book travel plans in this period. The exact date, time and
location are published by week 10. Consult the York University website for official timetable
information. You will not be allowed to write the exam if you are more than 30 minutes late.

AP/ADMS2510 3.0 (Winter 2020) Page 6 of 13

If for any reason you will have to miss the final exam, you need to submit a formal request to the
school (not to the course director) by following procedures specified in the “Relevant University
Regulations” section of this course outline, before the stated deadline.

Bonus Mark (1%)

At the course director’s discretion, students in this course may receive a 1% bonus if 70% or
more of them complete the online course evaluation. The course director will explain the
importance of evaluations and provide time in class for completing the evaluation.

text. ‘Adobe Reader’ and ‘QuickTime’ are needed to view the multimedia clips that illustrate and
explain the concepts. There are free computer labs on campus for registered students who do
not possess these computing resources. Campus computers do not have speakers, so you will

UNIVERSITY REGULATIONS AND PROCEDURES

Missed Tests and Assignments (including midterm examinations)

If you miss a midterm test, the weight can be transferred to the Final Exam. An Attending
Physician’s Statement (APS) form is not required for ADMS2510 missed midterm test. The Final
can be a maximum of 70% of the course; therefore, it is not advised to miss both midterm tests.
Connect assignments and quizzes CANNOT be transferred.

If you have a prolonged illness that prevents you from writing both midterm tests, you need to
submit the APS to the main office within 7 calendar days of the second missed midterm. In such
case, you will have to write a deferred midterm exam in the following term, subject to approval of
your APS(s). Note you cannot defer both your midterm tests and final exam. If this happens,
either your midterm or final exam grade will be recorded as zero.

You could find the APS from the following link:

https://myacademicrecord.students.yorku.ca/pdf/attending-physicians-statement.pdf?tab=3.
If you are from an online section, you could email your Course Director within 7 calendar days
after the regular exam with an attachment of your APS and mail the original APS to the main
office (the date stamped on the envelop must be on or before the designated deadline).

Concerns with Marking

If you have any concern with the marking of your work, contact your course director in class or
through email to have your concern addressed. Note, as there is a certain amount of judgment in
marking, the entire exam or assignment may be re-marked, and the overall mark could go up,
stay the same, or fall. Please note, if you wrote in pencil the midterm test paper may not be re-
marked if the course director cannot decide if the writing is original.

Deferred Exams
Deferred standing may be granted to students who are unable to write their final examination at
the scheduled time or to submit their outstanding course work on the last day of classes. Details
can be found at http://myacademicrecord.students.yorku.ca/deferred-standing

Any request for deferred standing on medical grounds must include an Attending Physician's
Statement form; a “Doctor’s Note” will not be accepted.

DSA Form: http://www.registrar.yorku.ca/pdf/deferred_standing_agreement.pdf

Attending Physician's Statement form: http://registrar.yorku.ca/pdf/attending-physicians-

AP/ADMS2510 3.0 (Winter 2020) Page 8 of 13

Students with approved DSA will be able to write their deferred examination during the School's
deferred examination period. No further extensions of deferred exams shall be granted. The
format and covered content of the deferred examination may be different from that of the
originally scheduled examination. The deferred exam may be closed book, cumulative and
comprehensive and may include all subjects/topics of the textbook whether they have been
covered in class or not. Any request for deferred standing on medical grounds must include an
Attending Physician's Statement form; a “Doctor’s Note” will not be accepted.

Academic Honesty
The Faculty of Liberal Arts and Professional Studies considers breaches of the Senate Policy on
Academic Honesty to be serious matters. The Senate Policy on Academic Honesty is an
affirmation and clarification for members of the University of the general obligation to maintain
the highest standards of academic honesty. As a clear sense of academic honesty and
responsibility is fundamental to good scholarship, the policy recognizes the general responsibility
of all faculty members to foster acceptable standards of academic conduct and of the student to
be mindful of and abide by such standards. Suspected breaches of academic honesty will be
investigated, and charges shall be laid if reasonable and probable grounds exist.
Students should review the York Academic Honesty policy for themselves at:
http://www.yorku.ca/secretariat/policies/document.php?document=69

Students might also wish to review the interactive on-line Tutorial for students on academic
integrity, at:
https://spark.library.yorku.ca/academic-integrity-what-is-academic-integrity/

Grading Scheme and Feedback Policy

The grading scheme (i.e. kinds and weights of assignments, essays, exams, etc.) shall be
announced, and be available in writing, within the first two weeks of class, and, under normal
circumstances, graded feedback worth at least 15% of the final grade for Fall, Winter or Summer
Term, and 30% for ‘full year’ courses offered in the Fall/Winter Term be received by students in
all courses prior to the final withdrawal date from a course without receiving a grade, with the
following exceptions:

Note: Under unusual and/or unforeseeable circumstances which disrupt the academic norm,
instructors are expected to provide grading schemes and academic feedback in the spirit of
these regulations, as soon as possible. For more information on the Grading Scheme and
Feedback Policy, please visit: http://www.yorku.ca/univsec/policies/document.php?document=86

Tests and Exams - the 20% Rule

For all Undergraduate courses, except those which regularly meet on Friday evening or on a
weekend, tests or exams worth more than 20% will not be held in the two weeks prior to the
beginning of the official examination period. For further information on the 20% Rule, please
visit: http://secretariat-policies.info.yorku.ca/policies/limits-on-the-worth-of-examinations-in-the-
final-classes-of-a-term-policy/

Reappraisals
Students may, with sufficient academic grounds, request that a final grade in a course be
reappraised (which may mean the review of specific pieces of tangible work). Non-academic
grounds are not relevant for grade reappraisals; in such cases, students are advised to petition
to their home Faculty. Students are normally expected to first contact the course director to
discuss the grade received and to request that their tangible work be reviewed. Tangible work
may include written, graphic, digitized, modeled, video recording or audio recording formats, but
not oral work. Students need to be aware that a request for a grade reappraisal may result in the
original grade being raised, lowered or confirmed. For reappraisal procedures and information,

reappraisal-policy

Accommodation Procedures
LA&PS students who have experienced a misfortune or who are too ill to attend the final
examination in an ADMS course should not attempt to do so; they must pursue deferred
standing. Other students should contact their home Faculty for information. For further
information, please visit: http://ds.info.yorku.ca/academic-support-accomodations/
